Um, has no one noticed my signature over the past three days? More to come.

Well, in any case, that solves the mystery of who D.A.R.E. is.

I hope you are who I think you are!

Oddly enough, I had noticed it.

Good old CATS.

I had noticed, too. And TBS explains why CATS is now CATS. But where I had insider info on that (and know more as to the why), I decided to just not say anything about it.

I feel like you all know something I don't know ... Which writer is CATS?

It was Optimistic. back in the day.

NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

And Optimistic. ALWAYS has a . at the end of his name.

I really am beyond thrilled about this.

So who is Optimistic. now? I vote D.A.R.E.

Dude, I totally already said that. I noticed this a couple of days ago: http://theboard.byu.edu/aliases/7757/

Oh, fun! I don't know how I missed that back in the day.

It wasn't only Optimistic.

ok i thought i had this figured out and now i'm confused...

optimistic.=cats back in the day

d.a.r.e.=cats now

d.a.r.e.=optimistic.??

someone else=cats before optimistic??

Close, but not quite. Change before to after.

ok so optimistic. was the first cats, then someone else was cats, now optimistic is cats again? maybe?

this beginning to feel too much like math for my drama major brain.

Yes, yes, and almost certainly yes.

So, just curious...is everyone okay now with trying to publicly reveal/link writers? I thought that wasn't kosher, but perhaps I was wrong. Personally, I always felt like if people figured out our identities, that was part of the game, but making it public wasn't cool. (Several former writers apparently don't feel the same way, though.)

D.A.R.E.'s bio says he's a former writer, so I consider it fair game to guess.
